New Jersey's Assembly on Monday passed a measure to eliminate religious exemptions for vaccines for schoolchildren, but the bill stalled in the state Senate as opponents shouted so loudly they drowned out the session.

If signed into law, the measure would end religious exemptions to required immunizations for public and private school children as well as for child care centers.

New Jersey would join a handful of states, including New York and California, in doing away with the religious exemption, if the bill becomes law. The New Jersey bill gained traction this year, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says has seen the greatest number of measles cases reported since 1992.Opponents argue that the measure infringes on their rights as parents to decide what's best for their children.

My body my choice especially on a faulty nonliable big pharma product also government is owned by big pharma so i foresee civil war if they don’t stop this medical tyranny !

All government and there are first.

The 1% want to depopulate nations! They view the populations as an obstacle to THEIR natural resources! Vaccines & immunizations can introduce DISEASES! eugenics HIV ebola TuskegeeExperiment Blackmen Blackwomen Africa Liberia DRCongo Kenya Nigeria Niger Ghana Gabon

Let us fail to protect our children for a pretend sky daddy. Pathetic folks.

Sad because if my child gets sick I guess I send these loosers the bill

The government again interferes with religious rights! This is the reason for the division of Church and State! Yes, to keep government out of the The Peoples Religious beliefs and practices. DEMAND your RELIGIOUS RIGHTS! FOX40 POTUS

Keep up the good work, NJ. Get it done.

What religious exemptions could there possible be? Jenner's smallpox vaccine 1796. Not been many prophets arose since then or did I miss one.

If adults don’t have to be caught up on vaccinations, and we’re not spreading epidemics, why do people have such a hard on for sticking needles in babies? The current vaccine schedule has kids getting 80 vaccines by age 18. People need to research OUTSIDE of manufacturer studies.

Schiff indicates he would like witnesses called and documents introduced in Senate impeachment trialHouse Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff on Sunday said he would like for some witnesses to be called during the expected Senate impeachment trial against President Donald Trump and for withheld administration documents to be introduced as evidence.

Clinton impeachment manager on Trump Senate trial: 'Key witnesses should...come forward and testify'Former Congressman Bill McCollum, R-Florida, was one the House members chosen for this task during former President Bill Clinton’s impeachment. Traitor should be impeached as soon as possible House Dems are 'claiming' they have enough info to Impeach on though. *Even though 99% of their testimonies were only hearsay, opinion and/or presumptions. They also leave out that Kurt Volker's testimony debunked Sondland's presumptive testimony claims. I wonder why during the house hearings the witnesses the Republicans wanted were never allowed by the majority under Schiff and Nadler now it shifts to the Senate and ? Is there case so weak ?
